What your custom biome transition misses is depth/relief. If you intend to have industrial-ish tracks, that means there is human activity, And such an area would not be completely flat. Incorporate some mud slabs for the tracks; their texture will further reinforce the pattern of tread marks.
So Ren has these custom plants made of azalea bushes, pumpkins, glow lichen, flower pots, and torch flowers. In the middle biome, because it has more moisture, try azalea bush, melon, glow lichen, and sea pickle. I made one in my test world and it looks pretty cool. The glow lichen helps the melon not be too obnoxious.
Man, everything looks insane, I like so much the way everyone is progressing in this season.
21:15 if you can add a campfire below some of the dripstone, it'll look like they're spewing gasses.
This video was my introduction to using different leaves to simulate sunlight as well, that’s really clever!
the custom biome can also have copper trees using copper grates that are not fully oxidized
Rens algea rocks coud make a good transition between greens and mud
16:00 that tree looks like a frog
Maybe some custom cacti between your and ren's place could work? gives it a bit of the green from your base but keeps the "dry" theme from Ren
You could try putting a campfire or 2 undet the dripstone features so they add thermal activity and, more importantly, movement to the area.

More like a bean stalk. Hint, hint.
i love the torch flowers on the shore. ren's "mushrooms" of spore blossom and dripstone would look very good sprinkled around as well. For custom trees, i wonder of you could do some shorter or more flacid palms. like where the trees from your area tried to propogate but couldnt grow as tall or became infected froma bug or fungus on the alien biome.
Maybe you could try making some trunks out of pointed dripstone in your muddy biome. It would give an hourglass curve. The plant could have some dripstone points hanging down too.
I have made some cool trees using magma blocks for leaves and obsidian for the trunk, but it might not fit so well here. Likewise, waterlogging all of a standard oak tree's leaves and then encasing it in coral blocks also gives a cool effect. Especially when you then swap out the trunk with one of the nether woods.
I was thinking you were going to hide the shulker box inside the leaves at the top. Make it a bit of a hidden thing.
Hey Xisuma at the top of your tree to the heavens have a sign saying "Your turn, take this down and build it somewhere new" with a chest with a few goodies and some shears.
X and the giant tree stalk
The custom biome needs a splash of color. Not too vivid, maybe some terracotta surrounding a stone of prismarine, glazed terracotta, or concrete powder?
Little patches of Course Dirt, Brown and normal terracotta. maybe even a little white terracotta mixed into the mud to give it some depth and "feature".
red sand and red sandstone in ren's mud =)
You could try to get branching growth off the beanstalk. Or you could make a massive tower for it to wrap around. Although that would be a lengthy build.
When I hear "The Curse of the Eclipse" my brain tells me it is a piece Mike Oldfield's work before I remember it's Xisuma's music (I listened to Oldfield far too much in my youth). It happens every single time. The tune is so damn good! 😅
You could try incorporating coloured candles in the trees to represent the multiple stages of pinecones, flowers, fruit, etc. Obviously you have to avoid it looking like a tree decorated for Christmas but that's quite easy if you use the correct colour tones. I don't know if propagules can be hung on non-mangrove leaves but if so, that'd be great too.
